Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. Nyx Butter Gloss, a buildable, pretty, and perfect for everyday lipgloss beloved by over 78,000 people that actually won't leave your lips all sticky like the other glosses you've tried over the years.
And it's cruelty-free!
Promising review: "Skip the expensive mall store — buy this. This is one of those drugstore products that lives up to its reputation. 'Angel Food Cake' is a nice, rose mauve color with no yellow undertones. The color stays true and won’t turn orange while you’re wearing it. It’s not sticky like so many inexpensive lip glosses. It will also keep your lips reasonably hydrated. The color won’t be dramatic enough for some, but as an..ahem...mature woman I need to keep it subtle. This gloss is all you need for everyday wear." —Toomanycats
Get it from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in 34 colors).
2. An amazingly affordable set of 28 (!!!) hair clips and pins, because the hair accessories trend continues and this one under-$10 purchase will be all you need for for countless different looks. Plus, messy hair is instantly Zoom-call-ready once you snap in a couple o' these.
Promising review: "SOOO CUTE. I have been wanting some cute hair clips for a while but a lot that I find in stores are expensive for only two or three clips. I found this pack and ordered them because they were reasonably priced for the amount you get and I am so glad I did. I love them ALL and can never decide which one to wear." —Amazon Customer
Get a set of 28 from Amazon for $9.99.
3. Rock star–worthy studded, chunky-sole Chelsea boots so epic, it basically doesn't even matter what else you're wearing them with. These will steal the show and make you feel like the badass that you are the moment you slip into 'em.
Promising review: "Buy this shoe! 😍😍 First let me say I have NEVER written a review for a product before. I felt this shoe deserved the recognition. The product arrived quickly and well packaged. If you like the style of the shoe online then you will love the way they look in person. OMG so nice and stylish. The perfect little heel for walking all day while still giving a little lift. I ordered a size 11 and they are true to size. They are actually a little roomy so I can wear thick socks and still feel comfortable. If you are reading for confirmation of fit or comfort this shoe has both. They are soft on the inside and still have a sturdy leather feel on the outside. Very well made and a great find for the price." —Vanessa
Get them from Amazon for $37.43+ (available in sizes 5–11 and in five styles).
4. Revlon's iconic hair dryer brush that reviewers of all hair types swear by to get a salon-worthy blowout at home, in less time, all with one tool. Win, win, WIN.
5. A pair of eyeliner stamp pens made for anyone who has ever spent over 20 minutes in the mirror trying to get that perfect cat-eye that probably only Cleopatra and Taylor Swift are capable of. This'll let you make it it out of the house on time *and* with the perfect look, and it's long-lasting, too!
It comes with two stamps (one for the right eye, one for the left), both of which have a black liquid liner pen on the other end, so you've got everything you need to create the purr-fect look.
Promising review: "I just want to make my morning routine as easy as possible. I love winged liner but I don’t have the steady hand for it without mistakes. This makes a perfect and consistent wing every time. Love it! I ordered the 10 mm and now i’ll have to try the 12 mm!" —Julie B
Get it from Amazon for $14.98 (available in three sizes).
6. Movie star–worthy, mirrored cat-eye sunnies at a "still waiting for my big break" price. Even if the rest of your outfit is a tee and sweats, these'll make your 'fit attract all the paparazzi.
Promising review: "I get compliments on these EVERY time I wear them. They look a lot like the brand Quay, which everyone asks me if they are. The fact that these get mistaken for a pair of $50 sunglasses should tell all." —Madison Holder
Get them from Amazon for $12.95 (available in six colors).
7. Cloud Paint, Glossier's bestselling gel-cream blush that's cruelty-free, buildable, and absolutely beloved by reviewers, so it's ready to become your new holy grail and give you the perfect natural-looking flush.
Promising review: "I've been on the hunt for years to replicate that rosy 'just went for a run' look that my cheeks get when I work out, and the blushes I thought were close were either too red or pinky and artificial looking. I saw the shade Storm and I was worried it would be too dark on my light-medium skin but it's not! It blends *s e a m l e s s l y* into a healthy flush that looks exactly like it's my own skin and not makeup. The texture is unlike any cream or liquid blush I've tried, it evenly disperses the pigment as you blend it in with your fingers or a foundation brush and you don't have to worry about overdoing it." —BabydollyVintage
Get it from Sephora (available in eight colors) or Glossier (available in 10 colors and as a bronzer) for $22.
8. A slouchy pullover sweater for anyone who is getting a little tired of their wardrobe staples and is in the market for a piece that's an instant cute outfit with jeans.
Promising review: "Best sweater I own. I get so many compliments on this sweater! I was super surprised when I opened the package to find that it’s extremely soft and not made of cheap material! This pairs great with leggings, jeans, colored jeans, seriously anything! I would definitely consider purchasing another color in the future!" —Aimee Echelberger
Get it from Amazon for $42.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in 18 designs).
9. Totally ~clawsome~ and trendy colorful nonslip hair claw clips with over 28,000 5-star ratings from folks who know they can up(do) the heavy lifting when you're in need of a cute way to toss your hair into a messy bun.
Psst...you can also check out our roundup of the best claw hair clips for more effortlessly trendy vibes.
Promising review: "I have worn these every day since I got them! They have a soft matte feel. The colors match the product photos perfectly. They have a good grip in my hair (I have collarbone-length, medium thickness hair, but a lot of it). I think these would work well for almost any length or thickness of hair, though. They are strong; you can tell because they take a bit of effort to open them at first. Bottom line, if you’re unsure if you should buy them, you should." —Samantha
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $7.64+ (available in nine styles).
10. A gluten- and cruelty-free mascara that'll get your lashes to look their all-time best and stay that way — reviewers say actually stays the heck on, even through long days and sweat. As if that wasn't amazing enough, it's Only. Five. Dollars.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Kayla Boyd (whose lovely face is pictured above) says it really lives up to the hype! Check out her full Essence Lash Princess mascara review.
Promising review: "Best mascara of all time!!! Never will I ever be without this mascara. I've got short, thin lashes and have had a graveyard of mascara that I would constantly give to my friend or daughter because they never lived up to the hype. This is amazing. I will sometimes add a fiber thing with it to make it even better, but it's great on its own. And the price makes it even more ridiculous. I seriously had my doubts but I'm a total fan now after using it. Getting ready to buy another tube now. It's lasted three months so far and I use it pretty much daily. I can't tell how much is left, but I don't want to risk being without it." —angmoore
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
11. A posh as heck JW Pei faux-croc crossbody bag featuring simply chic structure that will give every look the panache of carrying a designer bag — without the designer price tag.
I got one of my besties the non-croc version of this in black for her bday and she LOVED it. This hip label is Chinese American- and family-owned and makes its gorgeous bags with vegan leather and recycled plastic!
Promising review: "Standout bag. Looks and feels designer but way more affordable. Right on trend. Plenty of room for items." —Myra Alejandra
Get it from Amazon for $78.99+ (available in 16 colors).
12. A super sweet satin cami and shorts PJ set so you can continue looking adorable even when it's time to take off your OOTD and collapse on the couch with The Bachelor and Ben & Jerry's.
While I haven't tried this particular set, I'm a huge fan of other satin PJs I have by Target's loungewear brand Colsie — they're so comfy and the material feels great!
Promising review: "Amazing for price. Bought these a few days ago and wore them for the first time last night. So comfortable and actually stay in place for the most part compared to other silky, more affordable pajama sets I have bought. The shorts are not super short but they have a slit that’s so fun. I love!!" —mcgbz
Get it from Target for $20 (available in sizes XS–2X and in four colors and prints).
13. Elizabeth Mott Thank Me Later eyeshadow primer, a waterproof base to keep your shadows from creasing and to really make colors pop. And trust me, you will be thanking it later when your look is still perfect after hours of wear.
Plus, it's cruelty free! Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on this primer.
Promising review: "I don't really know anything about makeup, but I attended a wedding, and I felt like it was appropriate for me to wear a little. My eyes are hooded and eyeshadow pigments always end up along my hidden crease, creating a huge mess. My sister, a makeup lover, told me that all I need was a good eye primer that would hold the pigments in place. I don't really know how to blend, but with this, my drugstore eyeshadow pigment stayed on my lids for eight hours with very slight fading. This definitely gets 5 stars." —Tabitha Reed
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.
14. An 18-karat gold-plated earring set to make throwing the ear party of a century a breeze. From your everyday pair to those extra piercings that are looking a little blah, this set — which features one pair each of huggies, drops, and large hoops, *plus* a single hoop with attached stud— has got you covered.
Get it from BaubleBar for $168.
15. An amazing detangling brush that over 33,000 people swear by — especially folks with type 4 natural hair. Turns out getting your lovely locks looking and feeling their best does ~knot~ have to be a literal pain.
It's got an adjustable control bar you can use to spread the brush wider depending on the thickness of your hair.
Promising review: "I bought this after watching a YouTube video. I was a little skeptical but curious enough to buy it anyway. This sounded like nothing short of a miracle product. Wash day is not an event that I usually look forward to. Denman brushes, wide-tooth combs, you name it, I've been tortured by it. OH MY GOD!! IT REALLY WORKS!! The instructions are really simple. Brush your hair while holding the brush in a vertical position. After you've finished bushing all of your hair, brush again while holding the brush in a horizontal position. The knots came out with EASE. Strands of hair that were THINKING about forming knots decided to straighten up and fly right. I kept brushing parts that I had already done because I was in disbelief. Detangling took less than 10 minutes. Quite a bit of hair came out, but I've been wearing braids for the last four weeks so that's expected. It was less painful than other brushes too. If you have natural hair and have dreaded wash day for too long, get this brush. You will love it." —Nadine T.
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in five colors).
16. The cutest floral-embroidered, pastel striped V-neck tee so you can give off sweet and stylish seasonal vibes even if all you do is pop this on with shorts, jeans, or sweats.
I just got this and I'm so excited to wear it; I know it's gonna be my go-to tee this spring and summer! The V-neck is perfect — flirty but not so low that you're worried about cleavage. And the colors are even more vibrant in person! I love all my Loft tees and this is no exception.
Get it from Loft for $36.95 (available in sizes XS–XL).
17. Platform oxfords that could pass for designer. You can pop 'em on any time you're tempted to just wear your go-to sneakers for a much more polished look.
Promising review: "I love these shoes!!! I don't typically write long reviews, but I really love that I bought these. I bought them a week before a trip to Iceland and France with no time to break them in. They were great! It was rainy in Iceland and I wore these everywhere — they still look great and the platform kept me elevated enough that I never worried about puddles or anything getting my feet wet. I wore those on all the little sightseeing stops waking through dirt and lava fields. Comfy like a sneaker, but better looking. They elevated casual outfits — like navy capris and a white tee — to be a little more sophisticated-looking, which came out great in photos. I can wear these with no-show socks and without socks. With no-show socks they are roomy enough that I had no rub. I also had a stranger or two compliment me on my cool shoes. Overall, super awesome and a great value." —Justina Pfister
Get them from Amazon for $32.39+ (available in sizes 5–10 and in 11 colors).
18. Eyebrow styling soap you can just brush on to make your brows look super full and fluffy, or even style them into your desired shape. The 17 different brow pencils you have stashed in your vanity are all gonna be jealous.
Promising review: "Love this stuff. My brows stay fluffy and full all day long. I no longer fill them, they look so full!" —Bethany Catharine Schrock
Get two soaps plus brushes from Amazon for $7.99, or just one soap with brushes for $4.99.
19. A workout-friendly dress made from recycled plastic bottles (!!!) and complete with sports-bra-like compression and bike shorts with pockets underneath. Beyond looking cuter than everyone else at the gym, you'll be swapping your leggings for this on every errand run from now till forever.
Some reviewers recommend sizing up! Learn more about how Girlfriend Collective makes their sustainable athleisure gear here.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this dress. This is certainly going to be a staple piece in my wardrobe when it warms up. I love the cut of the dress as well, it’s not too short, but just short enough. The built in one-piece is great! The shorts are just long enough that I feel super comfortable." —Pilar B.
Get it from Girlfriend Collective for $88 (available in sizes XXS–6XL and in nine colors).
20. An airy, tassel-trimmed topper you can toss over absolutely anything to elevate your look in seconds. It's especially great for warm days that are still breezy enough to make ya want an extra layer.
Promising review: "I purchased this to wear over a sleeveless dress on a cruise. Cruise ships are freezing and this added just enough warmth. It also looks nice over a bathing suit. It's well made and looks just like the site shows. The lace across the back is very cute." —Lisa
Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in eight styles).
21. A creamy, jojoba oil–infused lip *and* cheek color for a rich pigment that works double duty — because why use two beauty products when you can use one? Each tub can last up to 90 uses, and it's vegan!
It's from a small biz specializing in innovative, on-the-go makeup essentials, and it can be snapped together with the brand's other products to create their signature customizable stacks.
Promising review: "Love. Love. Love. I'm obsessed with this cream for both my lips and cheeks. I've never thought I could use cream blush, but this stuff is gorgeous and long lasting even on my oily skin. It's beautiful on my lips and lasts a surprisingly long time." —Katy Shaw
Get it from Subtl Beauty for $14 (available in eight colors).
22. A Curl Cap, aka a backless, satin-lined baseball hat designed specially for folks whose natural curls are damaged by or don't fit under traditional caps. This will give you (*extremely Hannah Montana voice*) the best of both worlds!
It's from a Black woman–owned small business! ~Hats off~ to the inventor, who was inspired by her own experience trying to rock the baseball cap look with natural hair. There are even options with iconic characters like Princess Tiana and Spider-Man!
Promising review: "I haven't had much luck in the last 10 years finding something big enough to cover my dreads when I want to go hiking, camping, or just out and about. When I stumbled upon this, I was admittedly skeptical, but this baby fit like a glove. If you've been contemplating buying one, do it! You won't regret it. The shipping was fast. The quality of the item is good and there's plenty of wiggle room should you have hair as thick and long as mine." —Maya Reyna
Get it from CurlCap on Etsy for $24.99 (available in six colors and prints) or Amazon for $24.98+ (available in 19 designs).
23. A ridiculously romantic smocked midi dress you can smock...er, rock off the shoulder or on for an on-trend cottagecore vibe either way. Hello, perfect spring dress, come off my Insta feed and into my closet.
Reviewers say it generally runs true to size but a bit on the looser side.
Promising review: "This dress was made for me. Listen, guys, saying this dress is beautiful is such an understatement. Listen, it's the middle of the night and I'm feeling myself. Just wait till it's morning; the looks I'm serving all of you! Update: So I ended up buying three different colors of these dresses. I just loved them all. It's like the designer thought of me when they made these dresses! The material feels great on my body. The upper part is stretchy and fits very well." —Olive Bukuru
Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in seven colors).
24. A special jewelry clasp designed just for layering necklaces without tangles or hassle *and* keeping your favorite combo together.
The two sides of the clasp come apart and fasten together (but not by a lobster clasp, because who has time for that?!?) and each side hooks to one end of the necklaces. If there's a set of necklaces you always like to rock together, this is especially great because you can keep them all together and put them all on at once! This genius creation is from a small, San Diego-based jewelry business.
Former BuzzFeed Shopping editor Kayla Suazo writes, "I recently bought a couple of these and had one of those very real WHY DIDN'T I BUY ONE OF THESE SOONER moments. They do an amazing job at keeping your necklaces from tangling as you wear them, and I love that I can layer several of my favorites at once. I am forever sold on these."
Get it from Theresa Rose on Etsy for $13.49+ (available in two colors and for two, three, or four strands).
25. A sleek satin midi skirt, aka a transitional weather superhero. Wear it with sweaters, jackets, or sleeveless bodysuits, tights or bare legs, boots or sandals...you have got OPTIONS and all of them are chic.
Promising reviews: "This skirt is absolutely stunning! The quality is amazing for the price. I’ve bought similar skirts at other stores that are at least $60 plus but this one is the best one I’ve owned. You won’t regret it!" —Abby
"The rich color of the skirt is what sells it for me. Wear it with several colors, different styles and you will be the hit at work or at dinner." —Jennifer Olvera
Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 20 colors). And psst...here's a similar version that goes up to size 5X.
26. Winky Lux Glimmer Balm in Rosé — a glitzy, cruelty-free, vegan, phthalate- and sulfate-free wonder of a lippie that adjusts to the pH of your skin to turn the perfect, noticeable-yet-natural(ish) shade of pink. It's subtle enough for every day but still feels special, because everything is better with a bit of glitter.
I'm obsessed with this stuff, as evidenced by my need to post the above selfie to Insta the first day I wore it. I sometimes reach for it when I'm not even going anywhere but just need lip balm, because why shouldn't I zhuzh up my look just for me? I think the really amazing thing about it (besides the sorcery that allows it to adjust to your unique skin tone) is how well it suits all different beauty styles. For example, I really don't wear makeup other than the occasional statement lip to suit my outfit. I never — seriously, never — wear natural-looking lip color. This is fun and makes enough of a statement for me to actually want to wear it. On the other hand, even though the bullet is super glittery, the finish on your lips doesn't look too much glitzier than a gloss, so even my typically sparkle-avoiding mom got some of her own! Though I now own lots of Winky Lux's pH balms, this is still my fave shade.
Get it from Target for $16.99 or Winky Lux for $17 (available in two shades).
27. A tennis bracelet that could pass for real-deal diamonds — trust me. This beauty will look so stunning on its own or stacked with other bracelets, and you don't have to worry as much about losing it as you would a splurgier version!
I got this beauty in my Christmas stocking and I am BLOWN away. It looks so, so classy, shiny, and REAL!!!! I am someone who wears everything from expensive jewelry to the cheapest of costume stuff, and I'm treasuring this like I do my designer pieces. Like all tennis bracelets, the clasp is a bit pesky at first, but after just a few minutes of practice you should definitely be able to get it on and off by yourself, and it it feels secure. 100/10 recommend as a gift for yourself or anyone you love!!!!
Promising reviews: "Soooo pretty. It’s 100% a Swarovski [alternative] for so cheap. Looks exactly like the photo and I wear it every day." —Trysten Walters
Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in two styles, three colors, and three sizes).
28. An easy short-sleeve romper chill enough for day spent outdoors where comfort is a must, but that's in no way short on style. Just add white sneakers!
Reviewers recommend ordering based on the measurements in the size chart, not your usual size (as it runs a bit small).
Promising review: "More comfortable and higher quality than expected. I do not have high hopes for these random brand Amazon clothes but the good ones defy expectations. This romper is one of the good ones! It is comfortable and the material is not too thin/sheer. Only time will tell how it holds up but so far so good. I am about 5'8", 180 lbs, so I purchased an XL based on the reviews. That gave me a generous fit without being too large (it's loose, but I'm not swimming in it), so no problems pulling it up over my body as some reviewers mentioned. Cute and comfy, I'm contemplating getting another one in a different color!" —K. Affeldt
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in 22 styles).
29. A truly delightful set of patterned nail wrap stickers that will make it look like you got professional nail art done, but are actually a fraction of the price and will probably last longer.
I ordered this set after trying out a different, now-sold-out pattern from this Utah-based shop, because I had to have more. I'm honestly blown away — I've had these stickers on for over a week, and they are still over 90% intact on every finger, and not a single one has fallen off since I applied them. As if that wasn't enough, they're somehow only FIVE BUCKS. They weren't hard to apply or shape to my nails at all. All of that + plus the fact that this small biz makes tons and tons more designs for their wraps (which are made from real nail polish on medical-grade adhesive) = many more orders in my future. The only thing I didn't like was that there was a lot of pesky peeling involved to access each sticker, and that combined with my short nails mean that the process made a decent amount of waste. Still, I'm super excited about finding this brand, and the fact that each set comes with a few extras means you have backups if you mess up *or* you can save them for future manis to come (hello accent nails!). And psst, another tip: I finished off my mani with my favorite Orly top coat.
Get 16 wraps from Sawyer and Scout on Etsy for $4.99.
30. A pre-curated set of four gold-plated and faux pearl rings so creating the perfect, compliment-worthy stack will be a no brainer.
Promising review: "This set of rings is so beautiful. Each ring is unique and stylish. The size I chose fits perfectly and I love the pearl detail. I get so many compliments when wearing these rings. The quality is pretty good considering the rings are only gold-plated." —AusraD
Get them from Ettika for $60 (available in sizes 5–8 and in two colors).
31. Or a dazzling stacked ring set not a single soul will believe you got for 20 bucks on Amazon. Nope, it's definitely giving luxe jewelry line vibes. Plus, you also have the option to break up the set and wear the dainty piece and the larger stone separately!
Promising review: "First let me say I LOVE THIS RING!!!! I wear it all the time. I've been wearing it for over a month now and in the beginning I tried to take it off when doing dishes, showering, and washing my hands. After about two weeks I just decided to leave it on and it has been fine. I never take it off, the ring is true to size. It's not too thin or thick, feels great on, and it is durable. The only con is that the stones can sometimes look cloudy. Other than that I love it couldn't be happier, it's great for the price and I am very pleased." —tracy k revels
Get a set of two from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes 5–10 and in four colors).
32. A sleek knit halter crop top that'll have your floral skirts and high-waisted jeans and shorts quoting Jerry Maguire — "You complete me." Say hello to a layering piece that's almost as versatile as a basic tank but wayyyy trendier.
Promising review: "New favorite wardrobe piece. I absolutely love this top. It’s perfect without a bra, and I’ve paired it with skirts and high-waisted pants to the receipt of many compliments. My only regret is I didn’t buy it in every color." —Blair
Get it from Amazon for $17.90+ (available in sizes XXS–5X and in 22 colors).
33. The marvelous Alleyoop Pen Pal, aka an incredibly fun and convenient four-in-one makeup pen that'll remind you of the multicolor pens of your youth. Just click down the various levers for eyeliner, lip liner, highlighter, and an eye/eyebrow pencil, all in one portable and adorable package.
It's vegan and cruelty- and paraben-free! Honestly, I'm fascinated by all the clever, time-saving beauty tools from this woman-founded brand — they look so cool and would totally upgrade your routine. Also, how did no one think of them till now?!?
Promising review: "I love the ease of this product. It’s so perfect and the colors are great for all looks — casual, fancy, quarantine extra, everything! I love how effortless it is and how easy it is to use. I’m serious that as a makeup novice, these colors are impossible to mess up. I love it! " —Stephanie H.
Get it from Alleyoop or Amazon for $20 (available in three shades).
34. An iconic Levi's faux-leather moto jacket in the bold color or pattern of your dreams for an instant outfit maker. It comes in so many hues and textures, from basic to bold, you're sure to find one that'll make you swoon.
Reviewers love this and so do I (I have it in a purple shade that is sadly sold out)!
Promising review: "This is worth every penny you spend on it. The quality of the material is very nice for faux leather — the feel and look will have you thinking otherwise. The fit is perfect. I’m pretty petite so I’m always concerned with how things will fit, and honey it fits just fine. I mean I’m overly satisfied with jacket. I get so many compliments whenever I wear this. If you're looking for a staple moto jacket, this is, it put this in your cart now!" —Lauren Copeland
Get it from Amazon for $45.51+ (available in sizes XS–4X and in 42 colors and prints).
35. *THE* Dyson Supersonic hair dryer, which lives up to all the hype and is worth the major splurge, because you're basically buying good hair days forever. I did not think a luxury hair dryer would change my life, but I was wrong. This wonder is designed to not just be freakin' gorgeous, but work for all hair types, reduce heat damage and frizz, and increase shine. Plus, it comes with five amazing magnetic attachments that are a breeze to switch out.
One of my besties FULLY spoiled me for my birthday this year and got me the gorg special edition royal blue version (similar to this one) of the famous Dyson dryer. I was skeptical, but has blown me and my hair away. I hate gadgets and products that require a lot of setup or learning curve. This was not that at all — I popped it out of the luxe storage case, fastened on the styling concentrator head, plugged it in, and it was ready to use in seconds. The three-speed, four-heat setting, and cool shot buttons are super user-friendly and no more complicated than on a regular hairdryer. What is different? The POWER. This thing truly lives up to the "Supersonic" name with the power of the airflow, but is still relatively lightweight and just feels so luxe in your hand. I love the sound when you turn it off: it's a so-quick "zip" of the air shutting off like the noise a cartoon UFO would make sucking up a cow from a field — it makes it clear how this thing can go from 0 to 100 back to 0 again, all without getting too hot.
The magnetic head and detachable parts are also so cool — the magnet is strong but the heads easily snap on and off. I've really only used the basic styling concentrator head and played around a little with the smoothing, flyaway-busting attachment, but the Dyson YouTube channel has tutorials on how to make the most of all attachments. The dryer also comes with a gentle air head for fine hair and sensitive scalps, a wide-tooth comb attachment for curly and textured hair, and a diffuser for defining curls and waves. Basically anything you could need for a blowout is in this sleek box. Since I admittedly haven't perfectly mastered the technique and do still end up with some frizz, I definitely recommend using JVN's Complete Blowout Styling Milk with it for results that aren't just WOW but WOWOWOW.
TL;DR: The Dyson dryer is worth the splurge because it can make pretty much every day a great hair day and, if you're someone who regularly gets professional blowouts, will save you money on those in the long run. I have honestly been feeling more confident in meetings and fabulous in my outfits when I've got an epic Dyson blowout happening, and I've been asked if I just got my hair professionally done! So yes, life and style game totally changed.
Promising review: "I love my new dryer. I have very curly hair and it used to take an hour to dry my hair. I have cut that time down to 20 mins. I am biracial and have never had a product that allowed me to diffuse my hair without fizziness and or completely drying my hair out. I also purchased the Corrale straightener. Even after using the Corrale my curls pop right back. I love my products. Dyson is on point. I waited over a year to invest in these products, but the quality is worth every penny." —ALilly
Get it from Dyson (available in four colors), Amazon (available in two colors), or Dillard's (available in the special edition blue) for $429.99.
